The social network

Some of you have probably noticed some relative silence from Steve Sullivan in the Twitterverse recently. Sullivan hasn’t sent out a Tweet since Oct. 15. The reason? Dan Ellis.

The former Nashville goaltender was widely criticized for comments he made on Twitter in September in regards to athletes finances. Because of the backlash toward Ellis, Sullivan decided to mute himself on Twitter, at least for the time being.

“I just find that, I didn’t want to get myself in that position,” Sullivan said. “I’m still on there I still kind of read, I just haven’t posted since that stuff.”

Someone who has posted updates is Nashville backup Mark Dekanich. For example, today Dekanich Tweeted about the snowy weather in Nashville.

“I’m just trying to give fans insight on what we do every day,” Dekanich said. “Most of the time I try to keep it non-hockey related.”
